Have you watched this? Do you plan to?

Full House was one of my early discoveries when I first began watching Kdramas. I have come to believe that is why I am able to like it much more than I would if I watched it now. But...the fact remains that I did like it. It was funny, sweet, sad and silly. For some reason I adored Rain, even as arrogant as his character was! Song Hye Go is very engaging and so beautiful. Please see the MDL link above for the synopsis, stats, reviews and recommendations. Discuss if you want to.

i LOVE this drama, mainly because some how they managed to avoid most of the major drama cliches. (if memory serves they only did "the sick person", "the trip" and "the love/hate") the fact that the leads got on my nerves with thier epic denial was more than made up for by the fact that i didnt have to watch rain piggy back hye kyo due to drunkeness or korean 1 day ankle sprain syndrome .

I've been watching this for about 1½ years now.. So far watched 8 eps XD BUT I like this drama. I just need certain mood to finish this... Looking forward the 2nd "season" with No Min Woo ~~

When I started to watch I was able to watch 6 eps and then all eps were broken.. now they've been fixed but not in the mood for it...

I think I'll finish it after I've finished Yokai Ningen Bem aka this weekend hopefully. If I forget feel free to poke me nonstop so I'll be able to finish it.

I don't think I'll watch this drama.

The main reasons I watch dramas are: the story sounds interesting, I have undying love for one or more of the cast, or I think I'll find it visually stimulating even if I don't have undying love for the main cast. This one doesn't fit into any of those categories. :D

Yeah, I have my own set of criteria too for watching dramas. I developed the criteria as time went on. Like I said, I watched this early into my Kdrama obsession so I didn't really have one at the time. I am not sure this would have attracted me were it to come along now. Full House 2 doesn't interest me at all. It would take some serious raves and glowing opinions to get me to even consider watching the second one. Especially after I saw the pictures of all the poo hair going on in that drama. lol.

This was the first drama I watched where I remember distinctly the presence of Korean food being a repeated highlight in Kdramas. It is also the first one where I noticed infuriating plot points or characters. I don't want to spoil those who haven't watched but Spoiler------> The fact that her friends were able to sell her house...SELL HER HOUSE?! out from under her is a serious glitch in logic and I had to really suspend my disbelief on that. How is that even possible? Also...she always seemed to be cleaning the house...cleaning cleaning...it started to drive me batty. The cuteness of the main couple saved this drama for me. I had to find out what would happen to them. <--------end spoiler.
